Hello,
I really like the arch hook support. But, sometimes I commit from a
different machine and I forget to copy my updated hook script over.
Is there a way to perform "server-side" (archive-side) hooks so that
when I commit from anywhere, a hook can be invoked on the archive
machine?

Definitely not possible in the general case. SFTP and WebDav and POSIX
filesystems do not provide a means to execute arbitrary programs. If
you find one, you should report it to BugTraq :-)
